Getting Started Pulling Cranks
I have done some trolling pulling cranks and bottom bouncers for Walleyes, but never for Crappie. I assume that I should use something lighter than the MH Ugly Sticks and size 27 line counter reels I have. Since I live in PA I can only have 3 lines per angler in the water at a time. I usually fish alone but want to setup my boat for 2 anglers for pulling cranks.
I'm thinking of from starting from the stern to bow having a 6', then 10' and then 14' rod. One of each when I am alone and 2 of each when someone else is with me. I am also thinking of size 17 Daiwa Accudepth line counter reels with 10# mono. I do have a lifetime license for the precision trolling app and I also have Off Shore Tackle Snap weights if needed. The layout of the boat doesn't really support pulling from the back of the stern, it will have to be from the side (gunnels). I do have rod holders mounted in the Scotty mounts. I also usually do 2 piece rods since I don't have rod storage on the boat so about 5' is the longest rod section I want to have.
I'm looking for feedback on that setup along with Rod recommendations.
